Ingredients
• 600ml pouring cream • vanilla essence • 2 heaped tbsp cacao powder (or unsweetened cocoa powder) • 1½ heaped tbsp icing sugar |
Method
• Pour cream into a large mixing bowl and whip until it starts to thicken. • Once the cream is slightly thickened, add in the cacao (or unsweetened cocoa powder), vanilla essence and icing sugar. Vaguely stir in together. • If it needs sweetening or more of a chocolate flavour, now is the time to add extra icing sugar or cacao. • Once you have perfected the taste of the cream, continue whipping until light but firm (do not over whip, or else it may become butter). |
